Task Description Some icons are missing: XFCE4 Settings Manager: Accessibility, Appearance, Desktop, Display, File Manager, Keyboard, Mouse The icons on the panel (Mail, Web, etc.) are also missing (they're invisibile)

Task Description Stupid; in the /etc/pandora/conf/mmenu.conf the preview cache is looked for in mmcblk[12]* .. should be [01] or really just /media/*/pandora... etc. So just switch [12] to [01] and works fine. Fixed in the git tree already, so will roll out in a real image build.

 70 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Make switching GUIs more customizable (hardcoded at the ...Closed
100%
Task Description At the moment, /usr/pandora/scripts/op_switchgui,sh ,/usr/pandora/scripts/op_defaultgui.sh and /usr/pandora/scripts/first-run-wizard.sh are hardcoded with the GUIs we have. I'd like to have that configurable for the future. My current plan is having a config file with all the GUIs in (e.g. /etc/pandora/gui.conf) In there, there should be ALL GUIs: "XFCE4";"startxfce4";"xfce4-session-logout --logout" "Netbook Launcher";"startnetbooklauncher";"killall netbook-launcher-efl" "PMenu";"pmenu";"" So with an info: a) What's the name of the GUI b) How to start it c) How to stop it (if it doesn't do that itself) Therefore, various GUIs could be implemented and switched with the Switch GUI script by simply adding it to the config file. Ideally, all GUIs should either have a shutdown script (so I don't have to kill it to quit it) or react properly on a simple terminate command :) Or they could do it themselves, read out the config file, show up the different GUIs we have, change the /tmp/gui.load file and quit. Any more ideas? Any help? Coding that script shouldn't be too hard, the only thing I don't know at the moment is how to parse various config lines (as above) into a shell script :) vimacs, any idea there?
 54 CoreFeature RequestHigh Make it possible to enable / disable keyboard mappings  ...Closed
100%
Task Description Some stuff (UAE4ALL, SuperTux, etc.) is having problems because ABXY and DPAD are mapped to keyboard buttons. I guess this will lead to more problems in the near future with SDL apps, so it should be configurable to enable / disable the keyboard -> DPAD / ABXY mappings. Maybe this could be included into libpnd?

Task Description Some ports (like SMW, VICE, etc.) stopped working because libpng is missing from the current images. Installing it does fix that problem. http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/feed/armv7a/base/libpng_1.2.42-r2.0.5_armv7a.ipk
 45 CoreBug ReportMedium libpnd: Using German descriptions from PND files Closed

Task Description I have some PNDs which have a german description included. pmenu does use those instead of the english ones (which should be the default if no language is selected).

 63 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Include new panel-setup for XFCE4 Closed

Task Description I enhanced the XFCE4-Panel setup a bit, since we now have working ALSA mixer and a battery monitor. The files inside the attached archive should go to /etc/xdg/op/xfce4/panel/* in the image.
 60 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Include new menufile (Setting) for XFCE4 Closed

 37 CoreBug ReportVery Low Game doesn't start in No-X mode (pnd_run.sh) (Permissi ...Closed
100%
Task Description EDIT: Some more information from notaz: it's failing because it can't find controlling tty (/dev/tty is a "virtual" gateway device, so setting permissions gave no effect) do "ps ax" on your desktop and it has the tty column so SDL fbdev driver wants to get a real tty fo be able to read keys So we need to somehow give it a real tty? yeah, but I don't know why as pnd start from X and that gives virtual tty *don't know how* maybe something can be done using openvt, chvt and similar tools ------ What happens if you run a script in no-X mode: 1. It stops slim 2. It mounts all the directories as needed (works fine). 3. It DOES NOT start the app 4. It unmounts all the directories 5. It restarts slim (and therefore X) I can confirm the path is correctly and the filesystem is mounted there (did an ls -l). I can also confirm the game is working fine, as the same PND does work within X if I run it from the terminal using pnd_run supertux_noX.pnd So it looks like the line that actually executes the game does work when run in X, but not when run outside of X. Maybe it tries to execute the game on the screen where the script is actually started (X) and therefore can't run it as X is not running anymore? The line working in X-mode but not working in non-X-Mode: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/utmp/$BASENAME ./$EXENAME $ARGUMENTS The game I tried was SuperTux (SDL-Game) with a no-X=1 parameter in the PXML.

Task Description With the SDL client for freeciv the font characters show up as square blocks and garbage characters. This may be related to freetype. I had also heard that battle at wesnoth had similar issues.
 39 CoreBug ReportHigh file doesn't work (missing magic files) in image from F ...Closed
100%
Task Description It seems there's a bug in the latest package "file 5.04-r0.5" of the Angström repository: It's missing the magic files and therefore doesn't work. Unfortunately, pnd_run.sh depends on it and therefore it breaks the PND-system. Installing an older stable version (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/2008/ipk/glibc/armv7a/base/file_4.21-r0.1_armv7a.ipk) does make it work again. First appeared on image from Feb 13th, not fixed in image from Feb 22nd yet.
 47 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Medium evmapperd: Blinking LED and charging control Closed
100%
Task Description evmapperd should start blinking when the power is getting low. Ideally, the blinking speed should increase with decreasing battery power and should start maybe at 5% as default (would be nice to have the settings configurable by the user). As soon as the AC adaptor is connected, blinking should stop. When the battery power is at 0% it should immediately shutdown and poweroff (NOT to be overridden by the user!) Aditionally, we should have some charging control (or would it be better using a different daemon for that?) Here's part of my conversation with MichaelW: when the charge current was below a threshold, it would reduce the charger input current allowed and take it down to about what the system needs it would be an active thing constantly sampling the system and constantly updating the input current to match the system the alternative is that when the battery is full, the charge path is cut off until the battery drops down a bit, maybe 90%
 11 CoreBug ReportHigh Console keymap: Two keys not mapped yet Closed

Task Description INS (Fn + Del) is not working in console yet. ALT and CTRL are not working in console yet. The rest of the console keys are fine (tested in nano). Keys in X are mapped completely.
 49 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Change some of our scripts into internal PNDs Closed

 17 CoreFeature RequestLow Backlight off when display shuts off Closed

Task Description Would it be easy to make the backlight shut off when the screen goes off after a period of inactivity? That would save a lot of energy both during the charge cycle and if left on with a battery running. Thanks!
 72 CoreBug ReportMedium Automatic Screen Saver crashes SGX Apps Closed
100%
Task Description The automatic screen saver crashes apps which use the new SGX driver. Has been tested with pmenu and Quake. This does NOT happen with the Lid close / open turn off-routine, just with that automatic screen saver that turns of the LCD when you don't press a button for a while.
 38 CoreBug ReportHigh ALSA crashes every so often Closed
100%
Task Description EDIT: Doesn't seem to be crashing. Looks like the amp hasn't been setup properly. There is a fix by notaz: http://notaz.gp2x.de/tmp/uImage Use that with the latest image (Feb 13th) to test it out. ALSA crashes pretty often. Not sure, but I think it does this when something is eating up a lot of CPU. ALSA starts to spit out buffer_underrun errors and occasionally crashes with an input/output error. Then no sound will come from an SDL app. You can reinitialize it by playing a song with XMMS.
 68 CoreBug ReportLow AlephOne PND not running Closed
100%
Task Description I don't even know if this is a bug or if I just happen to have a fault in my PXML file. All multi-apps-PNDs I have do run fine - except for AlephOne. Whether I include the datafiles or keep them external, it won't work. I can manually mount it (pnd_run.sh -p /bla.pnd -m ) and run it from the mounted directory, but it does not do so automatically from the desktop file. If one of you two could check that out, that would rock. You can download it from the usual PND-Repo I use ;)
 317 CoreBug ReportMedium After disabling USB-host current still flows into USB d ...Closed
100%
Task Description On my Pandora, due to bad internal WiFi, I use an Edimax EW-7811Un USB WiFi adapter, which has a status-LED, flickering according to the network activity. After disabling USB-host through the settings menu, the WiFi functionality is gone, but the device's LED is still on. So some current must still flow into the USB device. The LED now has a permanent light, no flickering! This lack of "device intelligence" indicates that the device was indeed turned off, just current flowing directly to the LED circuit unaltered). I can repeat the aforementioned steps many times, the behavior is the same. As soon as I then first physically unplug and reinsert the device, the LED remains off eventually. From then on, every further issuing of "Disable USB-host" through the settings menu turns the device LED completely off. Smells like a kernel bug to me! As it requires one real un/re-plugging, from then on works ok.
 34 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Add software mixer to ALSA Closed
100%
Task Description Some headphones are very loud. The volume wheel cannot be used properly with them. Therefore, we should be able to change the volume in software mode, too. File attached below, simply needs to be included in the next image by DJWillis.

 173 CoreBug ReportHigh X uses 100% cpu in low power mode Closed
100%
Task Description After 10 minutes in low power mode X seems to go nuts and use 100% CPU. Obviously this is bad ;-) 14MHz isn't *that* slow, so there's obviously something getting wedged. I haven't been able to figure out exactly what's happening, but the fact that it always occurs after exactly 10 minutes suggests its power management related. Maybe we're getting stuck trying to kick off the screensaver, or something? Hacking op_power.sh do disable screen blanking shows that, unsurprisingly, the screen freezes at the same time X goes AWOL. Pressing the power switch brings the device out of low power mode, though there is often a few seconds additional delay as the event handling scripts take longer than normal to run because the CPU is already busy. I've attached the results of top -b -d 60 > toplog & while sleep 60 ; do cat /proc/loadavg; done > loadlog

 313 CoreBug ReportLow WiFi LED Not Triggered on First Activation Closed
100%
Task Description The first time WiFi is enabled after boot, using either the the config button menu or the Toggle WiFi menu option the WiFi LED does not light up. (though the WiFi itself does work) Once it has been enabled and disabled for the first time, it will work normally for subsequent uses of the WiFi toggle. If the Toggle WiFi script is launched for the first time from the terminal the LED does light up. This is the case in SuperZaxxon 1.53 with all current upgrades applied, and reportedly since the introduction of SuperZaxxon. checking /sys/class/leds/pandora::wifi/trigger while the WiFi is enabled but the LED off shows that the trigger has been successfully set to phy0radio Also noted while investigating this: If Wifi is enabled for the first time from the terminal the following errors are generated by /etc/init.d/wl1251-init Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] Usage: insmod filename [args] Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory Usage: insmod filename [args] The commands that generate these errors are only executed if the mac80211 module is not already loaded - and that module is not unloaded when wifi is disabled. This seems to be unrelated to the issue being reported, however I can't see any cause for the issue at all, so I figured it was worth including it in the report anyway.

100%
Task Description Wifi LED does not always get re-activated after enabling wifi. It seems that the led trigger which ought to be set to [phy0dadio] no longer exists and the phy# seems to increment (up to at least 11 I have observed) If I set the trigger to phy##radio then the notification works again, but I'm not sure of the best way to fix this. I suppose a quick hack to the wl1251-init script is the place to start.

Task Description I had beta 1 of hotfix 3, and there turning the pandora into a cardreader worked fine for that card. However, I just installed the latest hotfix 3 final, but that one fails to unmount. Attached is the pndrunop_storage.out. Apparently something's going wrong with the splitting of the partition name, as it tries to unmount /dev/mmcblk0 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p1 Manually unmounting it by using sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0p1 does work, but then I can't use the tool because that apparently only lists mounted memorycards.
 255 CoreBug ReportMedium Waking Pandora with closed lid nevertheless turns scree ...Closed
100%
Task Description Steps to reproduce the undesired behavior: 1) Close the lid. The screen goes off. 2) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into low power mode. The screen remains off. 3) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into normal power mode and turns on the screen although the lid is still closed! Desired behavior: Ad 3) If the system catches the event "wake from low power mode" it should first wake the system, then check the "lid open/close state", and set the screen on/off state accordingly. By this you could use the Pandora as a power-efficient sleep/wake-able closed-lid-device, practical for i.e. audio applications. I am using: Pandora OS R1.HF6.A4
